Hello and sorry for the late reply!
To answer your question quickly, food! I have placed plenty of potions and food around the area for you to take and use for when the healing spell isn't cutting it. Sad you couldn't get through it but happy you still had an earlier save!
Did not know about the sunhat though, that's a weird bug! Will fix it asap :)
Also, I hope I won't get dmca'd by the music either lol
Glad you enjoyed my game and I hope to see you in the next chapter too!
